18th-century White Marble Bust Depicting Ceres
A beautiful and impressive marble bust depicting the goddess Ceres, with her hair tied back in a voluminous style and held in place by ears of wheat on the side; one breast revealed through a lace chemise—the two symbols of Ceres united: the breast and the wheat, representing the goddess of agriculture, harvests, and fertility.....
Dated to the early 18th century, with a minor historical damage to the nose and a rust stain; restoration possible upon estimate; this beautiful and significant sculpture rests on a turned white marble base (damaged) dating from the 19th century
The ensemble has a most beautiful decorative effect; likely an Italian work
